Watch these barn owls as climbing into the nest scrape together and then preening one another. Barn owls don't build a nest, but the male will dig out a scrape and then encourage the female to nest in it. Here he had already dug the scrape and was testing it out. Watch his reaction as the female comes in to inspect it. He's a little reluctant to move over! She gently nudges him across then they begin to preen one another's faces. This is essential for the pair to bond before the eggs are laid.

I am a British wildlife artist based in Thixendale, North Yorkshire, UK. I build ideal habitats to encourage wildlife into my garden and use nest cams to study their behaviour. These studies inform my paintings. I share the best of my video research on this channel for free.
